SOONER OR LATER

My phone is turned off tonight
My headphones are singing to me
Like you once did
The neighbors are a lost memory
The traffic outside is a dream
But I think I am still awake
Living in a sleep-like trance
Life seems good
No poking or prodding to get ahead or stay afloat
Sooner or later I will wake up
And notice
The eviction letter
On the table
Again
